All items are written like this: Rubber chicken.
There are a few exceptions to the rules above. If I'm quoting a conversation and a name comes up, it will not stand out and items only stand out when you can pick them up or use them for something.

Part I: The demise of the zombie pirate LeChuck

After the intro you'll find yourself captive in
LeChuck's ship. Start talking to the small pirate and you'll realize that it's
your old friend Wally. Make him see that he is no good as a pirate and
he will soon drop his hook and start crying.
Pick up the plastic hook from the floor and
pick up the ramrod from the wall. Use the cannon and sink the four boats full of
skeletons. Afterwards, look out the window and combine the
ramrod with the
plastic hook to make a raff. Use the
raff to pick up the debris in the water. Go
back inside.

Use the cutlass you just picked up to cut the
cannon restraint rope. Now fire the canon. Since there is no rope to restrain
it, it backfires into Guybrush and through the door to the treasure room. The
rumble causes LeChuck to drop the voodoo canon ball which kills him and turns
the ship upside down.

Pick up the bag from the floor and the
diamante
ring underneath it. Use the ring to cut a hole in the
porthole.

Part II: The curse gets worse

Pick up the glowing amber from the beach. Walk
all the way to the left an on to the map of Plunder Island. All the locations
are named "?" until you have visited them. Go to the location to that
are located in the swamp. Try to enter the ship and you'll be stopped Murray.
Talk to him, end the conversation, and enter the ship.

Pick up the pin from the voodoo doll. Use the bag of nickels
from your inventory with the chewing gum machine,
Guybrush automatically picks up the pack of
gum. Pull the alligator tongue
and the Voodoo Lady will appear. Talk to her and tell her about the curse on
Elaine. She asks where you have hidden Elaine and
Guybrush runs back to the
beach only to see a pirate ship sailing away with Elaine.

Guybrush returns to the Voodoo Lady and she
explains that to lift the curse he must replace the ring with one of equal or
greater value. Talk to her about everything and you'll learn that you have to gather a crew,
find a ship, and get a map to lead you to Blood Island. You also have to find
Elaine before you leave. On Blood Island you must find a ring to undo the curse.

Leave the Voodoo Lady, go back to the map of the
island, and walk to the town. Talk to the small pirate selling lemonade and
you'll learn that his name is Kenny Faulmouth. Buy a glass of lemonade and you
see what his bottomless mug policy is.

Continue over the bridge and enter the theater
through the small back door. Look at the pirate coat and pick up the
dandruff
which you then find out is lice and pick up the glove. Pick up the
magic wand from the table and use it on the
magic hat. Pick
up the book that appears. Leave the theater and enter the Barbery Coast down by
the docks.

You need to get rid of Captain Rottingham so when
Haggis, the barber, puts down the comb, quickly put the
lice on it. After
Rottingham has been thrown out talk to Haggis and tell him you want a haircut.
When you are in the chair, use the handle on the side to raise the chair a bit.
Then kick the stone holding down the pages of the book. When
Haggis leaves to
find a new rock, raise the chair as high as possible using the handle. Then pick
up the scissors from the ceiling. Haggis
returns and Guybrush gets up from the chair. Pick up the
jawbreaker from the floor.

Leave the barber shop and walk back over the
bridge. Use the scissors on the mysterious flowers
in the ally next to Kenny's
lemonade stand. Guybrush will read some information about the
flower. Now use
the scissors with the undergrowth behind the flowers.

Walk towards all the junk and Guybrush will get
eaten by a snake. Pick up the
Faberge egg
inside the snake, the vacuum cleaner attachments, and the
lots-o-stuff. Look in
your inventory and mix the ipecac flower with the
pancake syrup. Feed the syrup
of ipecac to the snake. Guybrush gets spat out and ends up in a pit of
quicksand.

Pick up the reeds and a
thorn from the thorny
plant. Look in your inventory and combine a helium balloon with the
paperweight.
It floats in front of Guybrush. Blow on the balloon. Look in your inventory
again and combine the thorn with the hollow
reed. Use the pea shooter to shoot
down the balloon. Guybrush can now escape the quicksand and finds himself in
Danjer Cove. Leave the cove and return to the town.

The only thing you found in the snake which you
still have is a reservation for Blondebeard's chicken. Enter the restaurant next
to Kenny's lemonade stand and show the reservation to
Blondebeard. Pick up the club card
from inside the chicken skeleton on the table. Push the
quiet patron sitting at the table
and pick up the serrated bread knife from his back.

Give the jawbreaker to
Blondebeard which breaks
loose his gold tooth. Now offer him some gum by using the
pack of gum on him.
When he blows a bubble you can see the gold tooth is inside. Pop the
bubble
using the pin from your inventory. Pick up the
gold tooth from the floor. Leave the restaurant.

Cross the bridge and walk to the field behind the
theater. Walk to the grassy knoll and use the serrated bread knife on the
sawhorse holding the keg of rum. The keg rolls down the knoll and breaks on a
tree causing it to leak rum. Use the amber on stick
from you inventory with the trail of rum. The
tree blows up and lands in the stack of cabers.

Enter the Barbery Coast again. You now have to
convince each of the barbers to join your crew. Start by talking to Cutthroat
Bill. Chat with him a little and Guybrush will ask if he wants to join your
crew. Talk to him a bit more and convince him you can find gold. End the
conversation and show him the gold tooth. He is now a member of your crew.

Talk to Haggis and ask him to join your crew. He
only want to join your crew if you can beat him at caber toss. Talk to him a bit
more and you'll end up tossing cabers at the Field of Competition. You easily
win since the caber you have is the rubber tree you blew up.

Now talk to the dapper pirate by the door and ask
him to join your crew. Continue the talk with him and you'll learn that he will
only join your crew if you beat him at a gentlemen's duel. End the conversation
and insult him slapping him with the white glove. You'll end up on the Field of
Honor where you have to select a weapon. Close the middle box lid and choose the
banjo behind it. Edward Van Helgen plays a tune on his
banjo and everyone once
in a while he plays a single note. Notice which notes he play and in which order
because you have to follow him after he is finished. Continue doing so until he
starts playing the banjo behind his head. Go over to the gun pile and pick up a
pistol. Shoot Edward's banjo when he plays it in front of his chest. He joins
your crew.

You now got the crew you need.

Leave the barber shop and watch the cutscene that
displays the return of LeChuck.
Return to Danjer Cove and use the boat and row out to the pirate ship. Use
the serrated bread knife with the plank and climb onboard the ship. Talk to Mr.
Fossey and you'll end up being tarred and feathered. Return to the town and
enter Blondebeard's restaurant.

He thinks you're the devil chicken El Pollo
Diablo so he hits you on the head and you end up back on the ship in the
captains room. Use the book from your
inventory with Captain LeChimp. Guybrush will imitate him and
Mr. Fossey leaves. Guybrush automatically jumps out and picks up the
map to Elaine. Open the
porthole and jump out.

You are now the proud owner of the ship The Sea
Cucumber.

Return to the town and enter the theater. Go up
the stairs and you'll find the light controls that will help you find
Elaine.
Push the handle once and an X appears on the stage. That's where
Elaine is buried. Guybrush
automatically goes down the stairs and Slappy Cromwell, the actor, starts juggling.
One of the trunks is now open and has some cannonballs inside. Use the
chicken
grease from your inventory on the cannonballs. The act is now over so you can go
on to the stage. Pick up the shovel and Guybrush will dig up
Elaine and place
her in the crows nest on the ship.

Leave the ship and watch the cutscene. Use the
boat and return to the map of Plunder Island. Go to the beach on the far east
side of the island. Talk to the cabaña boy and show him
the club card from
your inventory. Pick up one of the towels and dip it in the
ice bucket. Slap the
cabaña boy with the wet towel so he runs away and pick up the
cooking oil. Pick
up two more towels and dip them in the ice bucket as well. Go
onto the beach and try to walk over to the sunbathing
man. You'll see that the
sand is too hot to walk on. Use the wet towels on the
sand to walk across.

Pick up the mug from the
man's stomach. You can
talk to him if you want, but it's not necessary. Open the gate behind him and
leave. Visit Kenny again and switch his bottomless mug
on the counter with the
mug you just picked up. Buy another mug of lemonade from him. When he sees you
have cheated him he runs off. Pick up the pitcher and fill it with
red dye from
the vats next to the lemonade stand. Go back to the
sunbathing man on the beach.

Place the bottomless mug on the
man's stomach and pour red dye in it. The dye colors his stomach and he thinks he is going to get
sun burned so he turns over. You can see the map to Blood Island on his back.
Poor the cooking oil on the map and peel it off.

You now have the map to Blood Island.
Leave the beach and watch the cutscene.

Part III: Three sheets to the wind

In the beginning of part III Captain Rottingham
borders the ship and steals the map to Blood Island. Immediately after, the crew
breaks into a song. Keep saying lines until you can say "We'll surely avoid
scurvy if we all eat an orange". Say that line and the song will stop. Next
you have to choose what kind of captain you are. In other words, if you want the
other ships to be difficult or easy to beat.

Next, look at the navigational
chart. You have fight the pirates on the other ships
and that way learn insults and comebacks until you are good enough to fight Captain
Rottingham. Select a ship on the navigational
chart and shot it down with the cannons. Then fight the pirate and
learn insult and comebacks. Every time you've defeated some pirates and taken
their booty, you can sail back to the Plunder town harbor and buy some better
cannons from Kenny to use in the ship
combats. Keep doing this until you feel you have learned enough to beat Captain
Rottingham. Then go after him and defeat him.

Pick up the bottle from the sand and try to pick
up the slippery greasy hand lotion next to Haggis, but he wont let you. Leave
the beach and go to the map of Blood Island. Go to the location in the middle
with the hotel.

Click the picture for a larger view

Enter the hotel and pick up the cushion from the
barstool to the left. Start talking to the bartender and you'll find out that he
has terrible headache. He asks you to find something to cure the headache. Pick
up the recipe book from the counter and look through it. You'll se that to make
a hangover cure you need an egg, pepper, and
hair from the dog that bit 'ya.
Leave the hotel and walk back onto the map.

Go to the windmill on the left side of the
island. Pick up some of the pepper next to the windmill and leave.

Go to the cemetery which is located below and to
the left of the hotel. Walk past the first few tombs and pick up the mallet and
chisel next to the tombstone in progress. Pick up the doggy
treats from the dog bowl and feed them to the old
dog. Take some
smelly dog
hairs from the him after he has bitten you and leave the cemetery.

Go to the beach without the shipwreck. Lay the
cushion on the rocks below the rubber
tree. Hit the rubber tree with the
mallet
and Guybrush automatically picks up the egg and the
cushion. Leave the beach and
return to the hotel.

Enter the hotel and give the egg, the
pepper, and
the smelly dog hair to the bartender. He makes a batch of the hangover cure,
takes a sip, and gives the rest to you. Order a drink from him and Guybrush
will ask for an umbrella. Drink the drink. Open the door in the bag and enter. Pick up the
refrigerator
magnet and leave the hotel.

Go to the strange lights near the volcano and
pick up the measuring cup from the small table. Leave and return to the beach.
Fill the measuring cup with seawater. Look in your inventory and
use the
pin with the magnet to make it magnetic and
then stick it in the cork. Now put the cork in the
measuring cup and you have a compass.

Return to the hotel and order a drink from the
bartender. Look in your inventory and use the
chisel on the Head-B-Clear (The
hangover cure) to open the bottle. Pour some Head-B-Clear
in the drink and drink
the spiked drink. Guybrush will faint and is assumed dead. Use the
chisel on the
coffin lid to escape and then use the chisel on the
coffin in the middle of the
crypt to free your old friend Stan. After talking to him, pick up the
coffin
nails from the coffin Guybrush was in. Leave the crypt and return to the hotel.
Walk up the stairs and enter the left door. Use the mallet on the
nail in the
wall. Leave the room and pick up the nail from the floor.

Enter the right door. Pull
down the bed and use the coffin nails and the
nail you just picked up on the bed
to nail it down. Pick up the book that's lying on top of the
skeleton.

Go down and talk to the bartender about
everything. You'll learn the story of him, his family, and his aunt Minnie
Goodsoup. She was engaged to a pirate, but on their wedding day he stole the
wedding ring. This is the ring you have to find, but since Minnie Goodsoup was
buried wearing the ring band you have to get inside the Goodsoup family crypt.
You can only do this by proving that you are a Goodsoup and then die again.

Tell the bartender
that you is a member of the Goodsoup
family and select a name. Tell him that you
could talk about Goodsoup family history all day and Griswold will be convinced
that you are a Goodsoup.

Go to the cemetery and enter Mutual of Stan. Tell
Stan you want some insurance and give him the
gold tooth as collateral. Return to
the hotel and order another drink. Pour Head-B-Clear
it in and drink it. Once
again Guybrush will be assumed dead, but this time he is buried in the Goodsoup
family crypt.

Once out of the coffin, walk to the left where
you will find the ghost of Minnie Goodsoup. Talk to her about everything and
learn her history. End the conversation and continue to the left. Pick up the
crowbar and walk around the coffin. Murray will drop down and try to scare you.
Pick up Murray and look through the crack in the wall. Look in your inventory
and use the skeleton arm to pick up the
lantern on the table. Place the lantern on the coffin lid
and use Murray with
the lantern. This will scare Mort and he will open the crypt.

Return to the hotel and enter back room. Pick up
the death certificate and go back to Stan. Show him the
death certificate and he
gives you the insurance money.

Go back to the hotel and pick up the
empty jar
from the counter. Talk to Madam Xima and bug
her until she tells you your fortune. She gets the card of death and lays it on
the table. Pick up the tarot card and get her to tell you your fortune again. Do
this until you have five
cards. Leave the hotel.

Return to the windmill and open the door
to the mill and Guybrush will
automatically walk to the top. Fill the empty jar with sugar water from the
barrel. Walk down through the windmill and leave.

Go to the small location to the left of the shipwreck.
There you will find Elaine. Place the jar of water on the
stump to catch the
fireflies. Look in your inventory and use the chisel to poke holes in the
jar lid. Put the jar lid on the
jar with the fireflies and
Guybrush automatically picks it up.

Walk to the lighthouse and place the
lantern from your inventory
on the lantern post and the lighthouse will work again.

Return to the beach and you'll see a mysterious
figure sitting in a boat. Talk to him and you'll find out that he is the
Lost
Welshman and the ferryman between Blood Island and Skull Island. Ask for a ride
to Skull Island and he'll say that he'll never sail that route again without a
compass, so Guybrush gives him the compass.

Once on Skull Island you will meet the winch
operator. Talk to him and ask him to lower you down to the smugglers'
cave. When you are falling down, quickly look in your inventory and use the umbrella
to safely land in front of the cave entrance. Go inside and tell the smugglers
that you've got so much money it's almost embarrassing. Continue the talk and Guybrush
will ask for the diamond. Offer to make a deal and you'll end up in a poker
game.

When Guybrush
and the smugglers are looking at the cards,
look in your inventory and give the five tarot cards
to King André. The smugglers
threaten you with a gun, but LaFoot opens
the door and blows out the candles, giving Guybrush
the chance to escape with the diamond.

Leave the beach and watch the cutscene.

Return to the hotel and enter the room with the skeleton.
Use the crowbar with the boarded
hole behind the bed and then use
it on on the bed to remove the nails
which will fire the skeleton into the
Goodsoup family crypt. Minnie Goodsoup will
be reunited with her love and they will disappear leaving the engagement
band behind. Guybrush
automatically walks to the crypt.

Pick up the engagement
band, leave, and watch the cutscene.

Go down to the shipwreck and talk to Haggis
about the bottle of lotion next to him. You'll learn that they need it to fix
the ship and that you can only have it if you find something similar to tar to
trade with.

Return to the hotel and enter the back room. Use
the chisel to carve off a piece of the wheel-o-cheese.

Go to the Cannibals' village and pick up the
block of tofu from the big table and the auger
from the small table. Use the auger to carve
a tofu mask from the block
of tofu. Wear the tofu mask and
continue up to the volcano. Your old friend Lemonhead
will escort you to the sacrifice to honor the volcano god. Throw some of the un-melted
hunk of nacho cheese in the volcano and it will erupt.

Go back to the hotel and put the rest of the un-melted
hunk of nacho cheese in the cooking pot
on the barbecue. Pick up the cooking pot and
Guybrush will automatically drag it down to Haggis.
Pick up the lotion and return to the
clearing where Elaine is.

Look in your inventory and combine the
enormous diamond with the engagement ring.
Use the greasy slippery hand lotion on the
cursed diamond ring on Elaine's
finger and remove it. Now place the completed diamond
ring on her finger.

Part V: Kiss of the spider monkey

You can talk to LeChuck
as much as you want and get explanations for lots of things. When you've had
enough end the conversation by saying "I've heard enough of your evil
stories! Let's get this over with!" and then choose a sentence to ignore LeChuck
with.

Open the door
to the ride car and you'll find out that Guybrush
has been turned into a child. Talk to Dinghy Dog
and ask how you can win one of the prizes. Then ask him to guess your age which
he can't and you win. Choose the anchor as
your prize and pick it up.

Put the anchor
in the pile of meringue pies
next to the Wharf Rat.

Open the gate
and look through the hole. The Wharf
Rat will shoot a pie at you and you'll get some meringue
pie.

Push Dinghy Dog
and keep pushing him until he bites you and you'll get some Dingy
Dog hair.

Walk over to the soda
jerk and pick up the pepper mill.
Talk to the soda jerk and order a snow cone.
Look in your inventory and use the meringue pie,
the pepper mill, and the Dinghy
Dog hair on the snow cone. Eat
the disgusting snow cone and Guybrush
will get back to normal.

Part VI: Guybrush kicks butt once again

Jump out of the car at the Monkey Island scenario
and pick up the fallen rope. Jump into the
next car and continue to the next scenario.

Jump out at the pirate scenario and pick up a keg
o' rum and jump into the next car.

Jump out at the Guybrush and Wally scenario and pick up the flask o' oil
from the open lantern. Take the next car.

Jump out at the snow scenario and walk up the Giant
Snow Monkey. Place the keg o' rum
under the Giant Snow Monkey's arm. Look in
your inventory and use the flask o' oil on
the fallen rope. Attach the fallen
rope to the keg o' rum and walk
back down to the tracks. Wait for LeChuck to
arrive. When he arrives and is ready to flame you, quickly look in your
inventory and use the pepper mill him.

Congratulations, you have now completed The Curse
of Monkey Island. Sit back and watch the ending cutscene.
